Our heaviest Moleskin yet, this vintage inspired style perfectly captures everything great about Moleskin from ruggedness to pliable felt-like comfort. These are the Japan Heavy Moleskin 5 Pockets.
Note: We recommend sizing up one from your usual Gustin size.
Of all the Moleskin styles we've offered and seen, this one immediately got our attention. It simply represents everything great about Moleskin. Most notable is the way it combines ruggedness and refinement. We know Moleskin has a history as a utilitarian, hard-wearing fabric. This version instantly builds that personality with real heft. At 15 ounces, it's the heaviest version we've offered and you feel it. Burly and thick. Refinement comes in the form of pure felt-like suppleness, approaching a thick leathery hand. It's a truly special combination that makes this great Moleskin stand out. Wearing these 5 pockets is a real experience. You feel comfortably protected. The colors perfect the package - this version is a pure black.
